SATURDAY, JULY 1, 1950 SIX (LUBS IN | NAT. LEAGUE | IN BIG RACE (By the Associated Press) Dust off those playoff rules, Ford Frick, your National League may be headed for a six-club showdown. With July 4th, traditional half-} way post, just around the bend, they're all in the race except Cin- cinnati and Pittsburgh. Boston, New York and Chicago closed in while Brooklyn and St Louis fumbled the pace. Now it's only five games from first place Philadelphia to the sixth-place Nes York Giants, and 12 from first l.'v| fourth. Lose one and you drop from first to third. The Dodgers did the trick last night. They took a half game lead into Shibe Park. After an 8-5 defeat to the Phils they were lucky to be third. The revamped St. Louis Cards sneaked past Brooklyn by mauline Pittsburgh, 9-4. That left the ck\m‘I l§ only three percentage points back of the Phils Cincinnati made an early lead stand up for an 8-5 victory over the Chicago Cubs, although Kennjy Raffensberger needed help mm‘ Herm Wehmeier in the eighth to save his victory. Big Luke Easter continued his long distance clouting with two mnrvl homers and Al Rosen hit his 21st as Clevland hammered Detroit Larry Doby went bat-in-hand after Detroit Pitcher Dizzy Trout when a Trout pitch sent him sprawl- ng in the second inning. Players from both sides streamed on the ield but the umpires quieted thz fuss short of an actual fight. The Yankees ended Boston’s even-game win streak with a 9-6 afternoon win but took a severel 10-2 drubbing from the Red Sox in the night half of the day-night program. The Philadelphia A’s escaped’ from the American League cellar| with a double win over Washing-) ton, 7-6 and 4-2, in a twi-night bill. Gus Zernial hit. his 13th homer with two out in the 13th inningz for Chicago’s 3-2 edge over St.' Louis. The loss, charged to Ned Gar- ver, dumped the Brownies into last place. , NATL. DECATHLON CHAMPIONSHI? IS | WON BY MATHIAS TULARE, Calif,, July 1 — (B — Handsome young Bob Mathias of Tularé won the national decathlon | championship for the third straight | year, broke the world record by do- | ing it and today planned a year’ holiday from this gruelling all- round test of track and field prowess. ‘ Throwing back the challenge of William E. (Bill) Albans of Northi Carolina, 19-year-old Mathias | rounded out the two-night perform- ance last night just before midnight with these achievements: | He captured the crown, the first | man to do it three straight years. ! He scored 8042 points shatterinz | the record that had stood for 14| years since Glenn Morris astonished the world by registering 7900 points for America in the Olympic games | at Berlin.

TS RAINIERS IN 52 WININ 8TH FRAME S | By JIM HUBBART (Associated Press Sportswriter) | When it comes to liquidating the | other guy’s , there usually is! no substitute for baseball’s most ne otiable security, the home run ball. | The round tripper paid rosy divi- | dends in the Pacific Coast League| last night, particularly for the Po land Beavers and the Los Angel Angels. Les Layton lifted one out of tI park for the Angels with one abo n the seventh to whip San Fran- isco, 5 to 3, and ruin one of the cuit’s foremost moundsmen, Al Lien. ‘The Beavers drilled three ball ver the fence in edging last place Sacramento 7 to 6. Mickey Rocco idministered two of them. Eddie| Barr got the other. L Although the antics of these I ser clubs contributed little mor than local color to the pennant| melodrama, they nevertheless over- hadowed a lethargic ritual at Holly- | od-in which Oakland dumped the | ars again; 5 to 3, and approached | to within two games of the lead. At Seattle, however, the game be- i(ween the Rainiers and third plac Zan Diego was a thing of beaut; Sealtle also collected two homer: by Al Lyons and Marv Rackley, | but it was Bill Salkeld's bases loaded | single in the eighth that broke San | Diego's back and insured a 5 to . | conquest for the Rainiers. | It was Seattle’s third triumph i four games with the Padres. Sal- keld’s timely one-baser broke up 2 | 2-all deadlock.

He has a good start for one. Yesterday while fishing off Point Bishop, with Mr. and Mrs. Walt Johnson aboard their 28-foot speed- boat, Rice hooked a 139-pound hali- | but—and landed it successfully us- ing a light 20-pound test leader. Rice, who weighs only 11 pounds more than the fish, said the com- bined efforts of himself and John- son could not get the fish aboard so they towed it to town. ‘What do you do with a fish like | that? Rice wanted to know. The Empire editorial room suggested a there should be a halibut derby.
